I am a mom, grandmom recent widow and also grieving the loss of my youngest sister because Two of my loved ones are now with God.

I miss them terribly but my grief is easier to handle because God holds me up. Also my artwork and my cats keep me busy and smiling.

I am enjoying browsing and see everyone's art pieces, you are inspiration.

I will keep drawing, painting, writing poems and shooting photos.

I was raised in Calif and now live in Texas (hence my ID) I am a self taught hobby artist that uses tutorials online to help me improve.

I have some prior names aka sultry from WetCanvas and Artpapa. I am on DA, some of you may know me as Sultrybaby from there. I was given that nick from my late husband who lost the battle of liver disease 3/27/10. He passed on right after my little sister who had a fatal fall hiking accident.

I am finally back drawing and painting again and it has helped me heal. My latest drawing "2 Feathers"

I was told about this site from a friend I knew in the other site /JurgenDoe.

I own three beautiful cats which are Bengals and one Siamese. I am trying to learn how to use my new Canon Mark II D5 camera. I appreciate any advice. :)

I was using a Kodak on auto and now after one class of photography I was told to never use that setting and to use AF Canon ( I need to get a lens for cat photography, I only have the landscape one that came with the camera).

Very nice to meet you! Thank you very much for the follow and the very kind comments and faves of my work. I am "revvin-meevil" on dA, and will add you to my watch there, as well. I agree, art and God, no matter what your personal faith and concept, is a very healing combination!
